Chapter 39: The Hunt for the Attackers
"That person's target from the beginning was Jiang Yu. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Ivan frowned, the smell of blood in the room made him uncomfortable.
Attacking himself first so that Nagato and Mutsu don't have time to take care of the next attack, it seems that the attacker has a lot of experience.
"Hopefully Yamato will be able to bring the attacker back."
…………………………
The moment the attacker fired, Yamato quickly pinpointed the location of his shot.
There are no superfluous buildings around the town guard mansion, and it is impossible to hide around the town guard mansion, and if the distance is too close, it will even be directly perceived by the ship lady in the town guard mansion, so the only place that can snipe is Zehu City.
There are no high-rise buildings in Zehu City, and the only thing that can be called the commanding height is a bell tower more than ten meters high, and if you want to snipe, the only option is there.
But it's useless to just know this, it's almost impossible to find a deliberately hidden killer in a densely populated area, Yamato wouldn't be naïve enough to think that the attacker would stay where he is and wait for him to catch him, being able to accurately hit the target from such a distance is enough to show that he is an experienced killer, this kind of low-level mistake even a novice will not make, let alone a veteran of his level.
Since he dared to attack, the location was placed in such an obvious place, which meant that he had already thought of a way out. But Yamato decided to go there anyway, not to try her luck, but to see if she could find some clues that could help her, even in the delicate arrangement would leave traces.
"I don't know who you are, but I won't let anyone hurt the Admiral." Yamato, who has always been gentle, has a rare cold expression on his face at this moment, what if Nagato and Mutsu were not by Ivan's side at that time or didn't have time to open their ship's position.
Yamato's figure shuttled through the night, and the soft moonlight sprinkled on her body, adding a touch of heroism to her.
It didn't take much time, Yamato rushed to Zehu City, and now it is about to be early in the morning, at this point, the citizens of Zehu City have already fallen asleep, accumulating energy for the next day's work, which also provides considerable convenience for Yamato, at least there is no one on the street.
Running through the empty streets, Yamato shuttled through them at a speed that ordinary people could not reach, and soon arrived at the bottom of the bell tower.
"Yamato-senpai?" The sudden appearance of a beautiful figure on the silent street was so obvious that when Yamato arrived at the bell tower, Prince Eugen, the gendarmerie ship in charge of patrolling, still spotted her.
"You are, Prince Eugen." Yamato quickly recognized the identity of the ship's mother in front of him.
"It's so late, why is Yamato-senpai here?" As for Yamato, Prince Eugen only knew that she was one of the pinnacle combat forces of the human race, and she was not far behind her sister.
"The Admiral has been attacked." Yamato's palms were clenched tightly, and the oil-paper umbrella that she usually held was also put away by her.
"What?!" Prince Eugen's eyes widened, "Is he being attacked again, Lord Doge?" ”
"Hmm." Yamato nodded, his gaze on the top floor of the bell tower.
The attackers have fled...... At least in Yamato's soul network perception, there was no one in the bell tower anymore.
"Did the attacker catch it?" After saying this, Prince Eugen realized that he had asked more, and if he caught the attacker, he would still use it here, and Prince Eugen stretched out his hand and touched the back of his head and laughed embarrassedly.
"Not yet, but he should still be in Zehu City." Yamato stretched out his hand and pushed open the wooden gate, and now the only place where the clue could be found was here.
Yamato walked into the bell tower, and Prince Eugen followed behind Yamato, this bell tower is usually not crowded with people, so it looks a little dirty inside, the ground is covered with a thick layer of dust, and even the corners are covered with cobwebs.
"What are these?" Prince Eugen, who was cautiously following behind Yamato, noticed two clear footprints on the ground, both of which were from the same person.
"It should have been left behind by the attackers." Yamato noticed that the slightly shallower footprints extended to the roof, while the deeper footprints walked towards the door, and it seemed that the man did not deliberately hide when he fled.
"Let's go up there and see if we can find useful clues." Yamato went up the stairs.
"Hmm." Prince Eugen nodded and followed, even though she belonged to the Gendarmerie and did not belong to the Guardhouse.
As he walked to the end, Yamato noticed a closed door.
The door was locked.
Yamato reached out and spun the knob and found that the door had been locked.
But this is not difficult for Yamato, there is no door in this world that can stop the pace of the ship's mother.
But Yamato doesn't understand one thing.,Since it's an escape, there's no need to deliberately close the door.。
"What's wrong, Yamato-senpai?" Prince Eugen looked at Yamato standing in front of her in bewilderment.
"Eugen, you stand back a little." Every move made by an experienced killer has a meaning, and Yamato doesn't think that he closed the door with his hand.
Prince Eugen blinked, and although she didn't know why Yamato wanted her to do this, she obediently took a few steps back.
"Click!"
The hand holding the handle twisted directly, directly breaking the lock, and then Yamato slowly pushed the door open.
"Nothing?" After waiting for Yamato to open all the doors, there was nothing abnormal, which made the careful and vigilant Yamato stunned for a moment, could it be that he was too worried?
Yamato let go of the handle and slowly walked into the room at the top of the bell tower, his brown-red eyes constantly scanning the interior of the room, hoping to find some clues.
Really...... Already fled.
At the window, Yamato found an anti-materiel sniper rifle used to attack, and only such a large caliber could shoot so far.
"Wow, it's a 20mm caliber anti-materiel sniper rifle!" Prince Eugen, who was following behind Yamato, also saw the sniper rifle placed in the window, and immediately exclaimed.
"You know?" Yamato wasn't very interested in human weapons, so he didn't feel anything when he saw them, but Prince Eugen was different, and she worked in the gendarmerie but often came into contact with them.
"Well, it seems that the attacker was able to get this thing for a long time." Prince Eugen nodded, "This caliber anti-materiel sniper rifle is very difficult to make, even our gendarmerie only has a 12.7 caliber, and I have only seen a 20mm one like this in the illustrated book." ”
It will definitely not be planned for a long time, the Admiral brought Jiang Yu back to the Town Guard Mansion is what happened today, listening to Prince Eugen's tone, it seems that this sniper rifle is difficult to get.
"Prince Eugen, do you know that Saeber Bay, no, is there any force in Zehu City that can take this kind of weapon?"
"I don't know about that, but there should be a record in the archives of the gendarmerie." Prince Eugen also came to Saeki Bay not long ago, and for the sake of her admired sister, she specially rushed here from Germany, but her sister had already entered the Naval Academy.
"What a help!" (To be continued.) )
